compiling cactid...

[gilles]

hello

i need to compile cactid (because i want to implement an alert when a host is unreachable)

i am under win32 with complete cygwin installed

i have multiple errors


for net-snmp 5.1.3 :

./configure (with default values)

i try net-snmp 5.0.10.2 :

for mysql 4.1.12 :
./configure –-without-server
make
make install

no errors




for cactid :
cd /src/cacti-cactid-0.8.6e
./configure
error on libcrypto not found

i download openssl-devel on http://www.openssl.org/source/
with version 0.9.8, i have a error on MDC2...

i try openssl-0.9.7g :
./config
-> the script autoselect cygwin
make
make install

no errors


but i have always an error on libcrypto not found when i try to compile cactid...


i see a post which talk of the file configure.ac but i don't understand what to do with it...

what files cactid need ? where need i to copy them ?


someone have responses for these problems ?



frustrant...

Did you install all the devolpment packages for cygwin?
Did you follow the rrdtool build instructions?

[gilles]

thanks for the response

yes, i install a *complete* cygwin

i follow the guide found on http://www.cacti.net/cactid_install_wincyg.php

but this guide don't specify i need to build rrdtool...

btw, i am able to build cactid without rrdtool :

my error was net-snmp

i build net-snmp in version 5.2.1 without errors (it's this version the binaries i use on my windows, others versions i tried before aren't disponible for windows in binaries)

so for me :

net-snmp-5.2.1 :
./configure
make
make install

mysql-4.1.12 :
./configure –-without-server
make
make install

cacti-cactid-0.8.6e
./configure
make


i am testing this scenario on a blank pc to be sure...

I have found that some versions of Net-SNMP just didn't make it. (pun intended )
